Bush ‘indicted’ over war crimes
In the Japan Times.

A group of Japanese lawyers unveiled documents Monday “indicting” U.S. President George W. Bush for
war crimes allegedly committed against the Afghan people since the United States-led coalition
began its antiterrorism campaign in Afghanistan in October 2001.
“This is an act that breaks international rules, such as the idea of (honoring) human rights, that
have been formed over so many years,” said Koken Tsuchiya, former president of the Japan Federation
of Bar Associations and head of the 11-member prosecutors’ team in the tribunal. “We decided this
case has sufficient reason to be brought to court.”
A civic tribunal will be held in Tokyo, with the first hearing scheduled for July 21.
The charges against Bush, according to the indictment, include aggression, attacks against
civilians and nonmilitary facilities and the torturing and execution of prisoners.
They said the indictment will be handed to the U.S. Embassy in Tokyo next week.
The tribunal is being organized by Tokyo Zokei University professor Akira Maeda and others.
